Out of the five stocks, in my opinion, Disney presents the highest risk as it has the worst Beta and the worst Short Ratio.

Next is Ford, with second highest Beta, second highest Short Ratio and lowest RoA. This would mean that the company is not very efficient in generating net income from its assets, thus increasing the risk. Next is Microsoft with the third highest Beta, highest P/E ratio and lowest ROE. This means ...
